Partial Dentures Near You
When you lose a tooth or a few teeth, your remaining teeth might begin to shift and fill in the vacant space on your gum line. This can cause you pain, trouble chewing, a different smile, and make it harder to properly clean your teeth. A customized partial denture in NW Calgary is able to fill that gap in your smile and prevent many of these issues from affecting you.
What is a Partial Denture?
Partial dentures are custom-made, removable dental appliances that replace your missing teeth. It replaces these partially missing teeth, while the rest of your natural teeth remain in your mouth. Partial dentures make it easier to chew, speak, and restore your confident smile.
When is a Partial Denture Recommended?
- You have lost several teeth: Partial dentures are ideal in cases when you have lost one or more teeth but still retain some of your natural teeth.
- You want a removable option: Partial dentures would be a good choice if you want a solution that can easily be removed for cleaning.
- You need a cost-effective solution: Partial dentures are often cost-effective, especially compared to dental implants or bridges.
- You do not want the teeth to shift: The partial denture keeps the other natural teeth in place. In this case, the rest of the teeth do not shift toward the created gap after losing a tooth.
If you are considering partial dentures, discuss your options with a denturist near you for personalized recommendations.
Tips to Take Care of Partial Dentures
- Clean them daily: Remove your partial dentures and clean them every day with a denture brush and a mild cleanser to prevent plaque buildup.
- Handle with care: Do not drop your dentures and always handle them with care, as dropping may result in denture damage.
